Background Check Authorization Form

Background Check Authorization Form | | Editable | Instant Download

Most landlords perform background checks on potential tenants. Before running a background check, have applicants fill out a tenant Background Check Authorization Form to get their permission to conduct the investigation. You can do this on our templated document, which also helps you gather the information necessary to screen your applicant. When providing the tenant background check form, tell the potential renter what checks you will run and how you may use the results. Your investigation can provide valuable details to make your applicant search more efficient and successful.

These may include information such as: Financial information, such as bank and credit accounts, Consumer credit report. Rental history. Employment history and income. Criminal background and Legal history.

Disclosing the types of records, you will check and how you will use them may prevent complaints or legal action if you decide not to rent to an applicant based on information obtained during the background check.
